Smith (12 TDs, 21 INTs) has had a rough year. But the Miramar HS product is coming back home. That might make a difference. QBs have a 76.7 passer rating vs. the Dolphins, which puts the Dolphins fifth-best in that category. DEs Olivier Vernon (11.5 sacks) and Cam Wake (8.5 sacks) need to lead the charge up front and the CBs Brent Grimes and Nolan Carroll (4 INTs apiece) need to clean up on the back end.

Edge: Dolphins
